Good evenly matched fight this anyones gold..

McGoldrick 6-5 up at the end of the 2nd round - this is going to be close

Keep them hands up Sean and pick the odd shot

7-7, 20 secs left.

countback - nervewracking

McGoldrick loses on countback.

Did well to get the Silver and boxed well, decent future at this level and possibly European, he is only young after all.

Interesting to think Weaver beat the Gold medal winner 7-1 in the test event earlier this year, he will feel even worse now, real shame it was a poor decision he got against the Indian

First up - 'Little Red' Paddy Barnes v Jafet Uutoni of Namibia at 10.30am Irish time. Barnes has already beaten the best in the tournament and should take gold.

Then one of the stars of the Games, Paddy Gallagher takes on England's Callum Smith in the welterweight final at 11.45am. Smith is one famous boxing brothers from Liverpool, including Paul, Liam and Stephen, and has coasted through the tournament and the Belfast man will be a heavy underdog - never seemed to mind that before!

Then we have the fight of the day, Tommy McCarthy v Scotland's Callum Johnson at12.15pm Irish time. Prepare for fireworks!

English poster boy Anthony Ogogo take on Eamonn O'Kane at 3.15pm in another highly anticipated contest.

Finally, its Big Steven Ward against Simon Vallily at 3.45pm. Vallily has been destructive throughout the Games, smashing his way to the final and will be favourite again in this contest, but Ward has beaten those odds already this week and will relish the challenge.

What odds on FIVE golds? Dont count against it. Come on!

Looking forward to these finals,i think England will get 5golds the only one im a bit iffy on is Ogogo think Okane might pull it off..
I think Ogogo lost to a irishman this year,do u know who he was SBW?? the name has slipped my mind...

Darren O'Neill;l

2 bloody good fights up till now , Welsh kid was unlucky but not robbed , once again when are these judges gonna start scoring the punches

2-2 after the first between Stalker and the Scot.

Stalker relentless, but nice defence from the Jock.

Well he fought Quigley but I think he beat him...

Stalker looks shit hot. 8-3 up with a minute left.

Punch perfect from Stalker - you won't see better.

11-3.

Taylor was a level below, but has plenty of time on his hands and will definitely win things in the future.

Quigley thats the name,dint realise Ogogo won..cheers for clearing that up ...Stalker looked class tidy boxing

Poor scoring this.

NO WAY the NI lad pulled 5 away from Smith in the last, no fvcking way.

Counted about 6 short hooks that weren't scored in the last, and another 3 in the second.

Well done to the NI lad anyway.

Quite a few of Smiths punches wasnt scored but i think the Irishman deserved it
well done to him

Would have been close at the end, shame.

Got to be honest purely unbiased view (I live no where near Liverpool) but i think the Smith kid was very very unlucky there, reckon punches that should have scored were in double figures for him, they have to do something they are ruining the game.

They need to cut the three judges scoring within a second down to two judges, gives the fighters a fairer chance of having there work registered plus it may stop a lot of this running away that happens when people are one or two points clear with a minute to go.

Scoring has been poor all the way through, only the odd biased fight but generally just piss poor

Still congratulations to Gallagher

Johnson from Scotland looking very good to strong

Hes looking good,defo suited to the pros

Won nice money on Johnson took the 5/4 at the bookies, not sure where they got that price from but thankfully it worked out.

Time to crack a beer me thinks

Looking forward to Ogogo v O'Kane, think it could be a great fighter.
